I want this one as my avater. But it sais it is too large:

"The file that you have tried to attach is too big. The maximum size is 6120 bytes."

But then.....:

Note: the maximum size of your custom image is 100 by 100 pixels or 6120 bytes (whichever is smaller).

whitchever is smaller...??? My picture is 99x66! So, why doesn't it work?

Your little pic has a larger file size than permitted not the actual pic size. Try reduing the quality of the pic.

I'll try.....

But then this line doesn't make sence;

(..)100 by 100 pixels or 6120 bytes(..)

Or am I thinking too much..? ;)

I can't do it :(

Is anyone here so friendly to do it for me?

here try this one. this thread should really be in the lounge

Matt has a point .. it should say max 100x100 AND/OR 6120 bytes.. gotta love Boolean logic.. :D

pic maximum size is 100x100 pixels. file maximum size is 6120 bytes. the pic you posted is smaller than 100 x 100 pixels but over the 6120 maximum file size. so you have to either crop some of the pic out to get below the max file size and then resize the pic to 100 x100 or do what i did and just shrink it a little more. or save yourself the work and copy someone else's avatar. i seem to remember seeing someone else with a similar if not exact photo.

... Or instead of saving it as a JPEG, try saving it as a GIF ...that will also reduce your file size (and color quality)!
